New York S05568 authorizes the Department of Transportation to establish a state memorial sign program for fatal motor vehicle crashes on state.
New York S05568, also known as the "Alexander John Smullen Traffic Safety Memorial Law," authorizes the Department of Transportation to create a state memorial sign program. This program allows for the installation of signs on state highways to honor individuals who died from injuries sustained in fatal motor vehicle crashes. The signs can be applied for by an immediate family member within five years of the crash, subject to a fee set by the commissioner. The program includes provisions for sign design, placement, and duration, and prohibits on-site dedications or ceremonies.
